Hey, since nobody answered I'll take a stab at this one.

I think the server value might need to be the name of your SQL Server instance, something like "MYCOMPUTER\SQLWHATNOT."

You should be able to view the instance name by opening the SQL management tool (that either comes with Express or is downloadable separately) and looking at the entry at the top of the server tree list.
